A 46-year-old man with a lengthy criminal history was shot and killed in Newark on Monday evening, authorities said.

Hassan Reeds, of Irvington, was found lying on the sidewalk with gunshot wounds when police arrived to the 400 block of Chancellor Avenue around 5:30 p.m, the Essex County Prosecutor’s Office said in a statement Tuesday.

Reeds was brought to University Hospital in the city, where he was pronounced dead at 6:16 p.m.

At the time of the conviction, the then 34-year-old Reeds had been arrested 20 times as an adult and had six indictable convictions. Judge Michael Casale noted at the sentencing Reeds had no high school degree and had never held a job.

Tutt, then 28, was convicted of reckless manslaughter and other offenses in connection with Reeves’ death. He received a 30-year sentence but was released from state prison earlier this year, according to records.

Reeds was convicted in 2014 of drug distribution and received five years of probation. He has been in the Essex County jail eight times since 2004 for a variety of offenses, including drugs and guns, according to records.
